Hydrogaurd or SM-90?

I'll be starting my first DWC. I'm trying to stay ahead of root rot by preventing it before it happens. I've narrowed it down to Botanicare Hydrogaurd (formerly Aqua shield I believe) or Nutrilife SM-90.

Naturally conditions will be clean as they can be and temps will be well within a tolerable range, but I'd feel better adding something to the reservoir. Anyone have good results with any of these products?

Hydroguard is great imo. I grow with my water always in the mid 70F's and don't have issues due to what I believe is the Hydroguard working its magic.

I think sm-90 is good as a bug repellant to spray the foliage but every time I ever put it in my res it made everything worse.
